His father was charged with a single misdemeanor count of third-degree assault.

Schramek said sheriff deputies responded to the report of an assault at the course about 1:30 p.m. Friday and found the victim bleeding from his face and head.

The man told authorities he had argued with the younger Pascual earlier in the day over a trailer used to transport mowing equipment. Pascual allegedly grabbed a length of pipe and tried to attack him. The employee managed to disarm Pascual and flee on a golf cart, Schramek said.

But later in the day, Pascual returned to the course with his father and confronted the victim.

The younger Pascual attacked him with the wood while his father punched him in the face. The attack was eventually broken up by the head groundskeeper, Schramek said.

Second-degree assault carries a potential term of up to seven years in prison on conviction. Third-degree assault is punishable by up to a year in jail.

Both men were released on bond for appearance in Southeast Town Justice Court later this month.
